Ko

(suf.) attached to pronouns to mark proximity (usually used in opposition to something else or for emphasis)

Ale ia ko.“Come here.”

Notes: This word is pe‘s partner in crime. It denotes nearness in many ways: temporally, spatially, even socially. As I mentioned with pe, the determined version is actually not that common. Mostly it’s used when the word itself occurs next to words that are spelled out in the kavaka i oala so that the reader can be sure that the adverb/pronoun isn’t a part of that word.
